how much do you think opposition to obama is based on the fact that obama is african-american? >> well, you know, it's very hard to know and i think that -- i don't think senator reed had to go in that direction at this moment. it is very, very difficult. let's not forget bill clinton when he tried to do health care, he got beat up really bad, too. he and hillary clinton got pummelled and hurt very badly. health care is a very tough issue for democrats to move in this country. this president i think deserves a lot of respect. lbj couldn't get health care done, the kennedys couldn't, the clintons couldn't. this president got it done. there is a backlash. i wouldn't go so far to say it's 100% about ways. bill clinton got beat up, too. >> young democrats, young republicans, folks my age, van's age, we don't see racism in every single moment or every single division. that really is something that harry reed's generation is a world that they're still living in. i think we've moved past that. i think there's reason to see a substantive debate about obama care and it doesn't have to b

barack obama is leading the country in the wrong direction. i'm a guy not willing to go along to get along. his message, i don't think there's a question really does resound there. >> another man whose message resounds there, when you consider the fact it was last year that rick santorum won the iowa caucuses, he made the headlines attacking the romney campaign, crediting president obama where he described it, at least making an effort to do the same. he's hardly a moderate. how does the party expand its base when see the more conservative candidates? >> taking more of an economic populous approach, you don't retreat on conservatism, but appeal to more working class americans by reaching out to them. the challenge, of course, is policy and ultimately that's where it gets tough for some in a working class americans where polling shows like government programs to a certain degree. as far as santorum in iowa goes, he did it the old fashioned way in 2012. all 99 counties, he courted voter by voter and it paid off for him in the caucuses. the chall

you talk about repealing obama care. you get the sense you can repeal obama care without repealing vealing the taxes that paid for it. a lot of people think if you started from scratch, the deficit would be worse. we wanted to make sure those things would be paid for. there is nothing wrong with raising the question, but the answer is that obama care was more than paid for and the next 10 years, it is going to be even more. one thing about health care, people saying about medicare and medicaid going up and up and up, out of control. well, that is not a medicaid sure or medicare problem as much as it is a med medical problem. you ask any of the physicians in here that have been prescribing health care for their employees r 20 years, 30 or 40 years ago, everybody got family coverage, no problem. then after a few years, well, we'll give you coverage, but you have to pay for your family. after a few years, you pay for your family and some of your own. then it is about 50-50. then we'll get a group policy because it is cheape

i wonder, you know, you guys, no label, started in the obama era. i've always been curious about it because to me watching what's played out the last four years, at least nationally, i know it can be different, like in a state like kentucky, but nationally watching it played out has told me there's no room for a group like no labels. you have an opposition republican party right now that says no to everything because the goal is to deny the appearance of bipartisanship. >> the last couple years have been aiwful for the country but great for no labels. what's happening is proving our thesis, which is not a post-partisan world. those that loved obama's message at that point have been more realistic and realized there's no thing as post-partisanship. partisanship is very good. the problem no labels has is hyperpartisanship. cory booker's message is a little different than obama '04 where he's saying, i'm a proud democrat and there will be certain issues, whether it's marriage equality or choice, we're not going to find a compromise on. we'll take our s
